Was having trouble decoding VK2PN in PSK31 mode due to the unstable conditions at the time (selective fading / multi-path). Switching to Olivia 500/16 fixed the problem. Copy went from marginal to perfect (see captured text below). We certainly are lucky as digital ops to have a variety of modes to choose from. Whether it's rag-chewing or dxing, it's nice to have the ability to switch to suit conditions.
